 I put Kankonian together and introduced it for the Net to see while I was in 
high school. I thought I had to be the youngest person in the conlang 
directory's Net at the time (Kankonian was officially declared "has been 
invented" in 1997). I spoke with David Dynes, creator of Merdian/Sulekhï, 
over the mail; he turned out to still be in high school too. Maybe David 
Dynes is still around and active on the Net, if not an actual member of this 
list. Well, I guess I'm certainly not the youngest person in the online 
conlanging community anymore.
